Mi Max 3 MIUI ROMs without firmware [fw-less]

Mi Max 3 MIUI ROMs without firmware​

​

We all know that Xiaomi added Anti roll-back to latest Stable/Beta ROMs (8.8.17 China Beta | 9.6.12.0 China stable) for (Mi Max 3). Which means if you flashed an older fw/rom with a different (lower) anti version of your current one your device will be bricked!

Here I'll provide MIUI ROMs fully stock but without "firmware-update", to prevent any potential bricking while switching between Miui Based ROMs

This process is automated and provided as a part of Xiaomi Firmware Updater Project.

Firmware-less ROMs​

Androidfilehost:

• Stable/Developer Firmware-less ROMs

Notes:

• After flashing any of the builds above you can't go and flash FULL Miui ROMs to downgrade, just stick to my modded versions if you want to use older MIUI builds
• No matter which Anti you have, you can flash any of those ROMs with TWRP
• These ROMs doesn't affect your phone bootloader in any way, so you can roll back to your old ROM after Flashing any of the above builds
• One more time, those ROMs won't remove or change your anti.
• Again, if your phone is anti 4, you can't just simply go and flash FULL older ROM, even after flashing Modded builds, so stick with my builds
• Anti 4 users can flash any of those builds just fine
  
  [*]All the notes Above applies for My Modded builds only, do NOT go and share it as facts for all Miui ROMs

Thank you for your work. I am currently on 9.6.4.0

Is the firmware-less version based from the global version from xiaomi.eu?

You must flash from twrp.

 

[shaifullah.ahad]

should I unlock bootloader first?

 

[yshalsager]

should I unlock bootloader first?

Of course

 

[shaifullah.ahad]

Of course

but when trying to unlock bootloader Mi Unlock says:

could not unlock After 714 hours of trying to unlock the devices

You have to wait that 714 hours and then you can unlock it.

Can these be flashed to repair partitions.
Where can I get China original before anti roll back

Hello I wanna ask,
Now that V9.6.6.0.OEDMIFD Global was released, I checked and it doesnt have anti-rollback (anti-1)
The problem is that some people are on anti rollback enabled (anti 4) roms and they want to get the global rom.

Is it possible for you to remove the firmware files from 9.6.6.0 and then make a version that allows anti-rollback people to downgrade / change their china rom to it?

Thanks and have a great day!

as soon as my scripts detect it, it'll be uploaded to my AFH, to install flash from twrp.

1. do we need to wipe something? (clean installation)
2. wont there be a high firmware mismatch?
3. what if there are updates? wont it detect it and break our devices?
4. how can you install this over 8.8.30, its miui 10... ?
5. Do you suggest installing stable 9.6.12.0 first?
6. cant you just use the link on the other thread? its available for download

1- wipe system data cache vendor
2- No
3- don't update and stick to my fw-less till global become the same anti.
4- Do as point 1 and flash the rom
5- No
6- http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.6.6.0.OEDMIFD/miui_MIMAX3Global_V9.6.6.0.OEDMIFD_091e94a919_8.1.zip

Thank you for your answer,
1. wont wiping vendor and system brick the phone (MIUI isnt capable of wiping system partition from twrp)?
2. does that mean that when using your modified rom, xiaomi will still send us ota breaking our phones? if so what can we do to prevent this?
3. yes this is the link! I really hope you create a modified version fo this allowing people to finally use a global rom even on anti-rollback
4. when 9.6.8.0 (Anti-rollback) global is released, do we need to update to it using your modified version or can we fastboot clean flash it as it has anti-4 ? I wanna make sue I dont break my device as its not fixable...

5. Someone said this rom is faulty can you check that out?

1- no, miui will replace it anyway.
2- ota is part of stock rom, my modded rom is stock one without firmware, nothing less, nothing more.
3- I'll leave this to my auto scripts.
4- fastboot or flash from twrp.
5- this rom is legit, official from mi. http://ru.miui.com/thread-14549-1-1.html
